Costly Collins for Dogs.

do the cemetery authorities object
to such intermentsP'
Certainly not. At least have not
heard of their Directing, even if they
had legal right to do so. The dogs
are inferred in the private burial lots
of their owners.
'.No monument that I am aware of
has been erected to a dog, but the
owner fixes some way of telling where
the animal is buried. The average
price paid for a dogs casket is from
$50 to $75, and the plates with the
name are usually silver, ana some
times plated. Pointers and settlers are
the dogs most favored with such lux
urious burial, and ladies are in the
majority of those who bestow the cost
ly post-mortem honors on their canine
friends.

Cider In Various Forms.

"Sweet ciderP Yes, sir. Here you
are"
A reporter was spending u day in
primitive New Jersey hamlet, and In
quired at the village inn for glass OF
that famous beverage.
That's good Just made, wasn't
it?'
..Lemme see. John, when was this
cider madep"
John replied from the lower end OF
the room that it was made little over
two years ago.

The cork came out with mighty pop,
and fine spray filled the air with

champagne.

keeper, as he filled two glasses with
the sparkling fluid. The tourist needed
no urging.
"Why, that doesn't taste like cider,
neither is it champagne. exactly. What

"Cider."
s.How did you make 1t?
II bottled it three days ago. It was
fresh. sweet, strained cider then. I

He hurried up to the office as soon
as he entered the hotel. and without
waiting to register inquired eagerly:
ANY letter for me?"
The clerk sorted over package
with the negligent attention that comes
OF practice, then Tipped one--a very
small one--on the counter.
The traveling-man took it with
curious smile that twisted his pleasant
looking face into a mask of expect
ancy.
be smiled more as he read it Then.
oblivious OF the other travellers who
jostled him, he laid it tenderly against
his lips and actually kissed it.
A loud outlaw startled him.
Now, look here, old fellow" said
loud voice, "that won't do, you know.
Too spooney for anything. Confess
now. your wife didn't write that letter."
mo. she didn't said the travelling
man with an amazed look, as if he
would like to change the subject
That letter is from my best girl.
The admission was so unexpected
that the trio of friends who had caught
him said no more until after they had
eaten a good dinner and were seated
togetaer in a chum's room.
Then they began to badger him.
''lt's no use. you've got TO read it to
US, Dick, said one of them; 1--WE want
20 know all about your best girl"
$50 you shall, said Dick, with great
GOODNESS; Il will give you the letter
and you can read it yourselves.
There it is, and he laid it open on the
table.
Il guess not" said the one who had
been loudest in demanding it; 1--WE like
to chaff a little, but hope we are gem
tlemen. The young lady would hardly
care to have her letter read bv this
crowd" and he looked reproachfully at
his friend.
'But l insist upon it," was the
answer, There is nothing in it to be
ashamed of-eXcept the spelling; that
is a little shaky, FL admit, but she
won't care in the least. Read it Hardy,
and Judge for yourself"
Thus urged Hardy took up the letter,
shamefacedly enough, and read it.
There we're only few words. First

piciously, and as he finished it threw

back of his hand across his eyes as if
troubled with dimnesss of vision.
.'Pshaw," he said, elf | had a love
letter like that" and then he was
silent
Fair play" cried one of the others
with an uneasy laugh.
.sIll read it to you boys" said their
friend. seeingfhey made no laove to
take it, land 1 think you'll agree With
me that it is model love letter.
And this is what he read:

For moment or two the company
remained silent. while the letter passed
from hand to hand, and you would have
said that each and every one had hay
fever by the snuf1ing that was heard.
Then Hardy jumped to his feet:
Three cheers for Dolly and three
cheers more for Dicks best girl"

rendered to the Germans in Paris during
the Franco-Prussian war of 1870 by the
late Mr.. E. B. Washburne, who at that time,
despite the blind hatred of the French
people, protected tbs Germans remaining
in Paris, eulogizes the courage and tact
with which Mr.. Washburne performed his
task, and says that by his efforts the
cordiality and close relations of the two
